Twenty less than the product of 3 and a number is -29. What is the number?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

3*-3=-9

-9-20=-29

Answer 2

To find the number, we can represent it as 'x' and create an equation. By isolating 'x' using addition and division, we find that the number is -3.

To solve this problem, let's represent the number as 'x'. The product of 3 and the number can be written as 3x. According to the problem, 20 less than 3x is equal to -29.

We can write this as: 3x - 20 = -29. To find the value of x, we need to isolate x. Adding 20 to both sides of the equation, we get: 3x = -9.

Finally, dividing both sides by 3, we find that the number is x = -3.

What is time and work for commercial mathematics?

Work Done = Time Taken × Rate of Work. Rate of Work = 1 / Time Taken. Time Taken = 1 / Rate of Work. If a piece of work is done in x number of days, then the work done in one day = 1/x.

Given here, two pipes fill the pool in 4 hours if they work together and If one of the pipes fills half the pool then the other takes over and finishes filling the pool, it will take them 9 hours.

Let volume of the pool be LCM(9,4)= 36 unit³ and their efficiencies be E₁ and E₂ respectively then we have E₁+E₂ = 36/4

                                                                   =9 units

Also  18/ E₁ +18/E₂ = 9

         putting E₁=9-E₂ we get

 18₁/ 9-E₂ +18/E₂ = 9

E²₂ -9E₂ +18        =0

(E₂ +3)  (E₂ -6)     =0

Therefore E₂ =6 units  as efficiency cannot be negative and consequently E₁ =3 units

Hence, if they are working alone they finish the work in 36/3 =12 hours and 36/6=6 hours respectively.

The volume of a cylinder can be found using the formula V = pi r squared h.

Which is the correct first step in finding the height of a cylinder with a volume of 192 pi cubic inches and a radius of 5 inches?
5 = pi (192) squared h
V = pi + (5) squared + 192 pi
V = pi (5) squared (192)
192 pi = pi (5) squared h

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D

192 pi = pi (5) squared h

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

It points out to find the height and it already gives you the volume and radius so all you have to do is plug in those to #'s.

So the "V" is always going to go first then the equal sign the the pi sign then a number followed by squared.

Right after that you should have an "H" which is the height you have to use to multiply.

The length of the entire rectangle is 10x + 7.

The width of the entire rectangle is 6x.

The length of the unshaded rectangle is 4x - 5.

The width of the unshaded rectangle is 2x.

We need to determine the area of the shaded region of the rectangle.

Area of the entire rectangle:

The area of the entire rectangle can be determined using the formula,

[tex]A=length \times width[/tex]

Substituting the values, we have;

[tex]A_1=(10x+7)(6x)[/tex]

[tex]A_1=60x^2+42x[/tex]

Thus, the area of the entire rectangle is 60x² + 42x

Area of the unshaded rectangle:

The area of the unshaded rectangle can be determined using the formula,

[tex]A=length \times width[/tex]

Substituting the values, we have;

[tex]A_2=(4x-5)(2x)[/tex]

[tex]A_2=8x^2-10x[/tex]

Thus, the area of the unshaded rectangle is 8x² - 10x

Area of the shaded region of the rectangle:

The area of the shaded region of the rectangle can be determined by subtracting the area of the entire rectangle by the area of the unshaded rectangle.

Thus, we have;

[tex]A=A_1-A_2[/tex]

Thus, we have;

[tex]A=60x^2+42x-(8x^2-10x)[/tex]

[tex]A=60x^2+42x-8x^2+10x[/tex]

[tex]A=52x^2+52x[/tex]

[tex]A=52x(x+1)[/tex]

Thus, the area of the shaded region of the rectangle is 52x(x + 1)

The length of a rectangle is 1 meter less than its
width. The area of the rectangle is 42 square
meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

If the length of the rectangle is x, then we know the width is x + 1.

The area of a rectangle is length · width, so we can substitute as x · (x + 1)

Now, we now x · (x + 1) = 42

Expand

x² + x = 42

Solve

x² + x - 42 = 0

(x + 7)(x - 6) = 0

So, x = 6

That means the length is 6 meters and the width is 7 meters.

The dimensions of the rectangle are:

Width, W = 7 meters

Length, L = 6 meters

Let's denote:

L = the length of the rectangle

W = the width of the rectangle

Given that the length of the rectangle is 1 meter less than its width, we can write the equation:

L = W - 1

We're also given that the area of the rectangle is 42 square meters. The formula for the area A of a rectangle is:

A = length × width

Substituting the given values, we have:

42 = (W - 1) × W

Now, let's solve this equation for W to find the width of the rectangle.

42 = [tex]W^2[/tex] - W

Rearranging terms, we get a quadratic equation:

[tex]W^2[/tex] - W - 42 = 0

Now, we can solve this quadratic equation by factoring or using the quadratic formula. Factoring seems simpler in this case:

Product = 1 × -42 = -42

Sum = -1

Required numbers: 6 × -7

[tex]W^2[/tex] - W - 42 = 0

[tex]W^2[/tex] + 6W - 7W - 42 = 0

W (W + 6) - 7 (W + 6) = 0

(W - 7) (W + 6) = 0

Setting each factor equal to zero gives us two possible values for W:

W - 7 = 0 or W + 6 = 0

Solving each equation:

W - 7 = 0

W = 7

W + 6 = 0

W = -6

Since the width of the rectangle cannot be negative, we discard W = -6.

So, the width of the rectangle is W = 7 meters.

Now, to find the length L, we can use the equation L = W - 1:

L = 7 - 1

L = 6

The question is:

The length of a rectangle is 1 meter less than its width. The area of the rectangle is 42 square meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

cost $5. Mark's total income for the event was $1871. How any adult tickets did he

sell?

Answers

Answer:

Mark sold 268 adult tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question.

Let x be the number of students ticket sold and y be the number of adult tickets sold.

Total number of tickets sold = 445

Thus, we can write the equation:

[tex]x + y = 445[/tex]

Cost of student ticket = $3

Cost of an adult ticket = $5

Total income = $1871

Thus, we can write the equation:

[tex]3x + 5y = 1871[/tex]

Solving the two equations, we get,

[tex]3x + 5y - (3x+3y) = 1871 - 3(445) \\2y = 536\\\Rightarrow y = 268\\\Rightarrow x = 445 - 268 = 177[/tex]

Thus, Mark sold 268 adult tickets.

(a) Find the GCF of 18 and 8

(b) use the GCF to factor 18-8

18 - 8 = blank x (blank - blank)

Answers

a) 2- The factors of 18 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 18. The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. This means that the greatest factor they have in common is 2.

b) 2*(9-4). You divide both 18 and 8 by their GCF. You can check this- 18-8 is 10 and 2*5 is 10. (I got the 5 from 9-4.)

The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 18 and 8 is 2. Using this GCF, 18 - 8 can be factored as 2 × (9 - 4).

(a)  To find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor), we need to determine the largest number that divides both 18 and 8 without leaving a remainder.

Prime factors of 18: 2 × 3 × 3

Prime factors of 8: 2 × 2 × 2

The only common prime factor is 2.

So, the GCF of 18 and 8 is 2.

(b)  We know that 18 - 8 = 10. To factor this expression using the GCF, we rewrite 10 as a product involving the GCF.

Factor out the GCF (2) from 18 - 8:

10 = 2 × (9 - 4)

So, 18 - 8 = 2 × (9 - 4).

Answers

Answer:

x+10=24

Step-by-step explanation:

the actual equation would give you 14

Final answer:

To represent the situation, you can use the equation x = 24 - 10 or the proportion x/24 = 10/24.

Explanation:

To represent the situation, we can use the equation: x = 24 - 10, where x represents the amount of water Mai drank. This equation represents the fact that the initial amount of water in the bottle (24 ounces) minus the amount of water that Mai drank (x ounces) equals the remaining amount of water (10 ounces).

Alternatively, we can also use the proportion x/24 = 10/24 to represent the situation. This proportion shows that the ratio of the amount of water Mai drank to the initial amount of water in the bottle is equal to the ratio of the remaining amount of water to the initial amount of water.
